Abstract

The main reason causing the degeneration of steel reinforced concrete supposed to be corrosion of reinforcement steel. In this study, compressive strength, weight loss and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were performed in order to investigate about the changes due to addition of 2% bio-friendly and chemical inhibitors per cement weight on corrosion of reinforced concrete mixed with 5% of NaCl and MgSO4 as corrosive materials. The results showed that Areca Catechu added sample revealed a dense texture clustered formation of gypsum. The samples with corrosion inhibitors had relatively more homogeneous surfaces and exhibited a smoother structure.
